This is RetroScape. If you're a fan of portal, you'll love this game.

As you traverse through your space ship, you must unlock each door to get to the next room. How do you unlock these doors? Well, in order to solve each puzzle, you realize you must go back in time to look for clues, get past debris, air holes, and many more obstacles. You must use your rewind ability, watch your oxygen levels, and health simultaneously as you try to solve our puzzles.
CONTROLS:

WASD - Movement

E - Interactables

Q - Rewind

TIPS:

A lot of things in the game are interactable, which includes the following:

Buttons | Switches | Turret Switches | Cubes | Symbols | Oxygen & Health Packs

When you use your rewind ability, after moving in the past you teleport back to your original position in the present. This is key to solving some levels.

Turrets are activated in the present but deactivated in the past. Unless you turn them on in the past ;)

While in the past, your ships hull isn't breached, which means you don't lose oxygen while you're in the past. This is key to managing your oxygen.

Hull Breaches decrease your oxygen loss rate substantially. DON'T GO NEAR THEM in the (present state).

In order to get access to some cubes you must use a cube (maybe even multiple)

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?

The idea is awesome and I loved the detail! However, I wasn't able to get past the first level because I couldn't quite figure out the controls or what things I could interact with. A tutorial level or super simple level would be very helpful.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We highly suggest reading our game description all the way through before playing! You will definitely find help there. We didn’t put in a tutorial intentionally!

It feels great to play this game! You really captured the feeling of loneliness and hopelessness in this title. With so little time, your team created such an amazing game with fun and quirky mechanics. I am really found of the soundtrack as well, thank you for introducing me to these artists! Overall, great job on the game. I believe this deserves a top spot on this jam!

Great visuals, but first levels too hard, tutorial would be great as already pointed out

Developer

We appreciate the feedback! We didn’t put in a tutorial intentionally! read our description for more on that!

A fun Game! It has a steep learning curve and I would make oxygen last a bit longer. Also, I didn't realize what the oxygen tank refills were immediately. Still, really well designed with great graphics and a lot of fun!

Developer

thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Nice game, I feel like it needs an in-game tutorial and for the early levels to be a bit more forgiving other than that its a nice little puzzle game that fits the theme well.

Developer(+1)

We didn’t put in a tutorial intentionally! We understand it’s a hard learning curve but we give you all the necessary tools in our description! DEV MODE! haha
